| 8 | Ferrari Literature Update Rainer Heiderstadt Way back in the very fist issue of Cavallino over two years ago, we ran an article on the factory-issued literature from 1965 onward. Ferrari, of course, had issues literature previous to this, but in 1965, that began numbering the pieces; the first number is its place in chronological sequence, the second number was the year issued. The number was found usually on the back cover at the bottom, and while making it easier for dealers and owners to order the appropriate piece, it has also made the Ferrari literature collector's task much simpler. It may not be simpler to find all the pieces at this late date, but it lets the collector know that exactly was published. | |
| 12 | Feature | Chassis 009 S A Brief History of an Early Road-Goind Ferrari Simon Moore Ferrari has done some strange things but surely few so strange as producing this rather slow, small saloons in the first serious year of Ferrari production. These cares were Ferrari 166 Sport, featuring the same basic engines as the original 2 litre sports-racers but with only a single 32 DCF carburettor rather than the three used on the faster cars. |
| 18 | Feature | The Mondial 8 We Get Ferrari's Latest David Egerton, SEFAC Ferrari Alright, alright. So, it doesn't have 12 cylinders, and it doesn't have that "ripping canvas" V-12 sound, and it won't break your neck when you plant your foot on the accelerator, and it won't stay glued on the road you've really gone past your limit, but it does everything else a Ferrari is supposed to do. |
| 24 | Feature | The Mondial 8 - A Styling Study When traditions meets the future Vittorio Sabadin David Edgerton, Pininfarina The theme that Ferrari suggested to Pininfarina was not an easy one to develop: designing the body for a mid-engined 2+2 car. Not only that, it was necessary to design it without altering the low aggressive line adjusting the two super-imposed shells, typical of all recents cars born from the co-operation between Maranello and Pininfarina. |
| 28 | Ferrari Lui - Continued The Tears in Valentin Park. Gino Rancati, Dr. Angelo Wallace Courtesy of Alfa Romeo Museum When we fist ran part of this book in Cavallino No. 5, we received some negative feedback from those close to Ferrari. They said they felt it was not totally complimentary to Mr. Ferrari and should not be published. We could find nothing disparaging in the book and beyond that, it is one of the few accounts in English that relate Ferrari's early years. We've had many request to continue the series, and now here following, the next instalment. | |
| 36 | Feature | Ferrari 312 GP Ferrari and the 312 B Series in the Seventies Michael T. Lynch Terry Thompson Ferrari went from 1949, his second year in Grand Prix racing, until 1957 before he stuck a year in which one of his cars did not win a Grand Epreuve. That eight years has remained his longest string of seasons with at leat one major victory. The sixties were not so kind and Ferrari automobiles were skunked in championship racing four times including of the last six years of that decade. |
| 42 | Le Mans and the Berlinetta Boxer Paolo Mallepelle Tom Davis, Paul Pappalardo, Scuderia Bellancauto, SEFAC Ferrari Is our last issue, we told you of the fortunes of the Ferrari 512 BB LM 34445 at the 1981 Daytona 24-hour race, and how a new car, 35535, was being prepared for Le Mans. Well, that car went to Le Mans and did quite well, as did the Charles Pozzi team which came in 5th overall and 1st in the IMSA GTX category; the former car was 9th overal and 3rd in the GTX. Three other competed, but were sidelined with troubles. | |

| 55 | Altre Pagine | Illustrated Ferrari Buyer's Guide by Dean Batchelor This is one of those projects that a lot of people in Ferraris said they were going to do but no one has gotten around to doing it until now. And fortunately, one of the most qualified persons in the Ferrari world has done it, old time Ferrari historian and expert, Dean Batchelor. |
| 55 | Altre Pagine | The Ferrari Legend: The Road Cars by Antoine Prunet This is the big book of the season on Ferrari, and it's well worth the money to buy it, and the time needed to read through it. Basically, it's the Fitzgerald / Merritt bible all over again, but without any of the sports or prototype cars. |
| 55 | Altre Pagine | Ferraris for the Road by Henry Rasmussen If you follow the automotive book market you'll be aware of a series of books originated and produced by Henry Rasmussen, entitled "the Survivors Series." They have become justifiable famous because of Mr. Rasmussen's superb photography on the cars in question, and because of the quality in design and production. |
